Although we play a game and launch rockets and shuttles without any complications, lol other than points and or timer runs out; in reality there are a lot of things which can go wrong, as we have learned through history of space exploration.
Launch for the Space X Dragon was scheduled for 9:01 this morning, however there was an anomaly in the second stage, that mission control could not determine as of yet, whether the problem is with the rocket itself, or with the monitoring equipment.
So the launch is pushed back to 09:38 EST tomorrow UTC-5.
The main reason for this post is the significance of Launchpad 39A where it is scheduled to depart from. 39A has a lot of historical significance, from the Apollo missions to launching space telescopes, and even the very first and very last Shuttle missions were launched from it.
A green launch rocket much resembles the SpaceX Dragon rocket.
If anyone wishes to see a live launch, tune in tomorrow at or before the new scheduled launch time at space.com You can also tune into NASA TV if your cable provider has the channel option.
